Refined Living

EXCLUSIVE LISTING QUALITY. SERVICE. EXPERTISE.

Editorial As summer comes to a close, many turn to enjoy the indoors throughout the colder months. Not that Malta′s autumn and winter seasons are not perfectly suited for the outdoors. In fact, the cooler months see greener spaces come to life with more bearable temperatures and fresher air.

With Malta′s mild winters, most properties are designed to offer both cozy and functional indoor spaces as well as great outdoor areas. This issue flaunts how these characteristics are designed for best use in different property types. From rustic and period homes to modern apartments and high-rise units, the fusion of indoor and outdoor spaces create the perfect balance for ultimate enjoyment of one′s home, irrelevant of the prevailing weather.

I trust you will enjoy browsing through the carefully hand-picked properties in this issue and invite you to get in touch with us should you want to know more about these properties or wish to have your property featured in one of our upcoming issues.

Its city status is marked by the monumental arch on the main approach road. Zebbug was, for centuries, the main agricultural village of Malta and the centre for the growing of cotton.

Zebbug houses some magnificent patricians’ houses and palazzos and fine examples of 16th to 18th century domestic architecture.

This converted house of character is located in a quiet alley and in the urban conservation area of this sought-after village.
